d. The insurance company is willing to offer a rebate to Samantha if she purchases the antitheft device. However, the
company would need to incur a monitoring cost to insure that Samantha installs and retains the device (to avoid moral
hazard). If the price of the device is $2,000, determine the largest monitoring cost the company would be willing to incur
while still offering a large enough rebate to cover the cost of the device? How would your answer change if the price of the
anti-theft device were $2,100?

Explanation
Ro Corporation
Annual incremental cost savings$139,000
Annual depreciation ($402,000 − $0)/6 $67,000
Annual incremental net operating income$72000
Simple rate of return = Annual incremental net operating income ÷ Initial investment
= $72,000 ÷ ($402,000 − $12,000)
=$72,000÷390,000
= 18.5% (rounded)
Therefore T
The simple rate of return on the investment is closest to 18.5%
